TN-Birders,
This morning, I opened the French doors to my deck only to hear the great 
sounds of a lone veery from the tree behind the deck here in the Charlotte Park 
section of West Nashville, Davidson County, a few blocks from the Cumberland 
River.  I soon found the bird, which, very UNusually, was perched in an open 
"window" amongst the leaves of a hackberry tree.  It was gaily singing away and 
provided a real thrill as it is a new yard bird.  Since I don't have a "thrush" 
yard, this being my first of the "brown" thrushes, I am really surprised.  
Being so close to the river seems to give me some advantage in attracting 
unusual birds occasionally as they seem to like to follow water routes and 
sometimes 
seem to get a block or so "off course." 

T'was a good beginning for the day!

Cheers & prayers,

Dee Thompson
Nashville, TN
